Project Overview
The homeowner wanted a reliable, future-ready charging setup for their Tesla along with improved electrical capacity for the home. While the existing equipment would have supported the new charger via the Cutler-Hammer garage subpanel, the customer requested a proactive main panel replacement for added peace of mind since it feeds the subpanel serving the EV charger.
- Tesla Wall Connector: Installed on a dedicated 60A circuit, with charger placement within approximately five feet of the panel for an efficient, clean installation.
- 200A Main Panel Upgrade (indoor): Replaced the existing main panel in the basement and brought it up to current code with proper grounding, bonding, and clear circuit labeling. Reconnected the service entrance cable and existing circuits.
- Breaker Configuration: Reconnected and organized household circuits with standard breakers appropriate to the loads, including a 100A two-pole subpanel breaker, 50A and 40A breakers for larger appliances, multiple 20A circuits for small appliances, and a 15A circuit for lighting and standard branch circuits.
- Permitting and Inspection: We filed the county electrical permit and coordinated inspection to confirm compliance with current electrical standards.
By modernizing the service equipment and providing a dedicated EV charging circuit, the home now has the capacity and safety features needed for dependable daily charging.
